No worries i'm not giving up it's just so weird that it's so close to home. I'm sure my next flight I'll be nervous as fuck though. I wonder how it happened. She probably did not have the controls, this pilot is pretty experienced and in case of an emergency landing most pilots will choose to do it over the ground and not on water...

I'm sure the school will be grounded until all the facts are collected and the investigation is over. this is definitivly gonna make me re-read my emergancy procedures.

Damn Kart. But its like anything else. If someone you know dies in a car or motorcycle accident, does that stop you from driving or riding? It might, but you cant let that get to you even though its definitely on your mind. Stay up Trak.

Wow.. Sorry to hear that bro. I hope they find her to give her a proper sendoff. Everyone's said it, but stick to you plans.

Im sorry broseph. I hope it turns out to be a freak accident that would never happen to someone in a normal lifetime. I expect you'll use this situation to harden your habits and thoroughly go through pre-flight, flight, and post-flight checks (I made up half of those words). The best pilots are those that learn from OTHER peoples mistakes and not their own because you don't have many chances to make mistakes.

Sucks. I had a similar feeling when a co-worker's husband was killed in a car crash last year... I wasn't close to the guy at all, but still felt extremely :ugh:


Flying is still ton's safer than driving or riding your motorcycle down the freeway though, so it's all good :thumbup:
